Re: Adjustable Rear Lateral Links
They are whiteline adjustable for the STI. I was able to get my Dealer parts supplier to send me a pair for test fitment. I will be ordering another pair for the other side of Shotgunslade's car. Got them mounted and with a little work everything fits perfectly. I am debating getting some Cusco pillowball trailing arms for his car as well but feel the adjustable lat links will be more than enough for suspension stability and adjustability.

Re: Adjustable Rear Lateral Links
I have the Megan Racing lateral links I haven't finished the full fit up since I have been busy on pretty much everything else. I have to replace my backing plates before I start reassembling. The lateral links will work though and I have the trailing link as well. The adjustable trailing link may need some slight modification but nothing too major. I look forward to seeing what others are doing though.

Re: Adjustable Rear Lateral Links
I figured the STi links would be a bolt on. Good to know!

I'm guessing those were the ones that Jackie had on the shelf I'd told her a while back I was interested in them, but then got busy with life She had four of them when I talked with her, so I take it you're getting the other two for Dan's car. I definitely want to do this for RacerX so I can actually get some serious negative camber on the back. I'll give you a call this week. -Bill

Re: Adjustable Rear Lateral Links
Looks great! I wish my subframe looked like that. Maybe not gold, but that clean anyway...

Re: Adjustable Rear Lateral Links
Wow, that looks great and you even have Nevins sway bar in there which looks really good with the lateral links. I am a bit jealous of the rear subframe too. I took the cheaper route using a grinder and some engine block paint (gloss black) it looks ok but not like a smooth powder coat.

Re: Adjustable Rear Lateral Links
Look at the picture of the installation instructions with the part number across the top Ouch Tom. Upon further digging, whiteline's website gets $300 PER SIDE for the KTA107 adj. links. It's a needed upgrade, and with Nevin's swaybar on the way I was thinking about it, but $600 on lateral links seems a little excessive to me...

Re: Adjustable Rear Lateral Links
Lets just say I got a good deal on the lat links. Considering the failure rate of the original bushings in other SVX I have had apart they are absolutely needed for a car ready to hit the track. Not to mention the adjustability of camber and rear wheel toe is an added plus And they look fantastic. Other side is on its way

Re: Adjustable Rear Lateral Links
$600 for the full set is fairly standard for those, the Perrin ones list for $560 or something. If you're going to be tracking the car on a regular basis you have to be ready to spend the money on it.
